Lyrics

Life it goes on and on and on on
I'm getting older
Now I'm looking back on my life I'm trying to control the
Narrative by how I live
Forgive me if I get rid of
The things that make me colder
I need to lighten the load on my shoulder
Of the dreams they sold us (hey)
I was working so hard climbing the job ladder
It was sad selling myself to something that didn't matter
It would've been sadder if I wasn’t so afraid
If it weren’t for her I probably would've stayed
I was a resource to them because I was paid
And I was a slave to the great paper trade
And she kept saying “wait” again and again
If it keeps going you’ll probably go insane
We need to escape
With the paper we make
We will scrape and we’ll take
All our savings and get away
I could’ve Office Spaced that place set it ablaze
Even though that really wasn't the way I was raised
So I kept walking and acting unphased with a big backpack on till I was sat on a plane
Would you believe me if I said I found peace so profound when my feet first touched the ground in Denpasar
So bizarre
I'd never felt such peace in my heart
It wasn't stress free nor was it easy
To address anything displeasing
But we had the best swan song
And now our lives can continue to go on
I'm back now and everyone round town and all my friends and family either have a house
Or they’re getting married, maybe even have a child
And I’m… I’m here existing just like “ooo”
Ooo wow, it's kinda wild how I haven't seen another person in a while
I kinda feel like a hermit in exile
Do I start to feel nervous around now?
One day I'd love to have a house, a partner and a child
Or children running around
But when I think that out loud there's a voice in me screaming “when?” and “how?”
No more parting the Gs like Moses
And no more -after the party- sleeping in the car in the cold
Till five in the morn
Won’t fly anymore
But life, it goes on
Life it goes on
Life it goes on
I guess I’m getting older…
